Whether you’re seeking the rugged natural beauty of the Sonoran Desert landscape or the activities, sophistication, and vibrant urban life of one of the country’s most progressive metropolitan areas, you’ll find it at Sagewood, a resort-style senior living community in Northeast Phoenix near Scottsdale, Ariz.
Our stunning Southwestern architecture captures the timeless character of the surrounding desert environment with its open-air design, indigenous landscaping, and serene desert-toned color scheme. At the heart of Sagewood is a magnificent, welcoming rotunda featuring giant columns from Douglas fir that surround a sturdy, live ironwood tree. A splashing fountain cascades into an outdoor pool complex complete with gazebo, outdoor dining area, fireplaces, and ramadas. Tucked between our two clubhouses, under the shade of mature palo verde trees, lies the beautiful Town Center Plaza. Here, among fountains and ramadas, you’ll find the very center of activity at Sagewood. Opening onto the plaza are the Canyon Café for informal dining, the Mesquite Grill with lounge, an outdoor dining and display kitchen, a convenience store, a business center, a beauty and hair salon, the fitness and strength-training center, a bank, and our creative arts studio.
